The Life Spirit Flame, ranked fifth on the Heavenly Flame Ranking, is characterized by the fact that anyone who possesses it will have an extremely long lifespan, comparable to some long-lived magical beasts.
On another note, the Life Spirit Flame itself possesses an extremely terrifying life force. If medicinal seeds are placed into the Heavenly Flames, they can grow into medicinal herbs in just a short time.
At the same time, the power of the Life Spirit Flame can also be used to revive some medicinal plants that still retain a trace of life.
And right now, these Thousand-Fan Tree are exactly like that.
Although Jin Yao said that the Thousand-Fan Tree had been dead for several years, Thousand-Fan Tree Xiao Yan still sensed that it contained an extremely rich life force.
This aura was gradually accumulated over a thousand years of growth by the Thousand-Fan Tree. Even with Jin Yao's strength, she had not noticed it. If Xiao Yan had not possessed the Life Spirit Flame, a rare and Heavenly Flames of heaven and earth, he probably would not have been able to detect it either.
" The Life Spirit Flame! I never imagined that you, sir, would possess such a Heavenly Flames!"
As Dou Di expert, Jin Yao was naturally aware of the effects of the Life Spirit Flame. Upon seeing Xiao Yan take out the Life Spirit Flame, she couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
"Everyone says that you can control many Heavenly Flames, and I didn't quite believe it before, but now that I've seen your Life Spirit Flame, I have to admit I'm truly impressed!"
Although the Heavenly Flames was powerful, it didn't seem to attract Jin Yao much. She couldn't help but purse her lips and admire Xiao Yan a few times before turning her beautiful eyes back to the Life Spirit Flame between Xiao Yan's fingers.
Compared to the Heavenly Flames, she seemed to care more about the Thousand-Fan Tree.
"Heh, just some petty tricks, nothing to worry about."
With a light laugh, Xiao Yan knew that Jin Yao was somewhat impatient at this moment, so he said nothing more. With a snap of his fingers, a ball of emerald green flame rose up in Xiao Yan's palm.
Stepping forward, Xiao Yan stood before the Thousand-Fan Tree. The emerald green fluorescence reflected off Xiao Yan, making him look like a piece of jade.
"Master Jin, this is my first time attempting to revive the Thousand-Fan Tree. Whether it will succeed remains to be seen; if it fails..."
"Sir, please rest assured, the Thousand-Fan Tree is already a withered tree. If you don't come, it will simply remain here and won't be sold. If you truly cannot revive the Thousand-Fan Tree, then its destruction is its destruction. But if you can indeed revive it, then I guarantee that you can take three items from my Thousand Medicine Pavilion!"
Before Xiao Yan could finish speaking, Jin Yao's soft voice followed, and upon hearing it, Xiao Yan's heart stirred slightly.
He was already a truly poor man, with only three Emperor Grade Pill left. In this Thousand Medicine Pavilion, he could probably only take two or three items at most. If that happened, he might miss the auction a few days later. Therefore, Jin Yao's words at this moment undoubtedly tempted Xiao Yan.
"Hehe, then I'll thank Master Jin in advance. As for reviving the Thousand-Fan Tree, I will certainly do my best!"
Nodding heavily, Xiao Yan suddenly swung his hand, which was controlling the Life Spirit Flame, backward with great force. Instantly, emerald green flames swept out and covered the sky, like a huge fire net, completely enveloping the Thousand-Fan Tree in front of Xiao Yan.
The instant the Life Spirit Flame surged forth, a boundless aura of life surged forth from the Heavenly Flames, rapidly spreading throughout the entire partitioned hall.
Immediately afterwards, Jin Yao clearly saw that in the next room, some medicinal herbs placed in the air, whose originally dry surfaces quickly turned green, just like newly sprouted buds. At the same time, a fragrance of herbs spread from the next room, making people feel refreshed and relaxed.
Noticing the unusual activity in the next hall, Jin Yao's pretty face immediately lit up with joy. This was because the Life Spirit Flame was taking effect. Of course, although the other medicinal herbs in the hall were also showing signs of activity, the Thousand-Fan Tree placed in front of Xiao Yan at this moment did not react at all.
The emerald green flames, like liquid, rapidly covered the entire Thousand-Fan Tree. At the same time, from between Xiao Yan's brows, surging Spiritual Strength burst forth, desperately controlling the Heavenly Flames and slowly seeping into the interior of the Thousand-Fan Tree.
Driven by the promise Jin Yao had just made, Xiao Yan was truly going all out this time.
A surge of Spiritual Strength swept out like a tide, controlling the emerald green Heavenly Flames. Following Xiao Yan's thoughts, it gradually flowed into the interior of the Thousand-Fan Tree.
The dark green bark showed no signs of life, Xiao Yan had no choice but to try to use his Heavenly Flames to touch the life force deep within the Thousand-Fan Tree. Only by touching that life force could the Life Spirit Flame take effect.
The thick, solid tree trunk was like an impenetrable fortress. Even though Xiao Yan exerted tremendous effort, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, it was still incredibly difficult for the Life Spirit Flame to penetrate the tree trunk.
Unfortunately, the Life Spirit Flame was not suited for combat. To enter the depths of the Thousand-Fan Tree's trunk, there was no other way but to slowly advance using Spiritual Strength. Therefore, although he felt exhausted, Xiao Yan could only persevere helplessly.
The ancient tree was only a little over a foot in diameter. If it were any other tree, Xiao Yan could easily penetrate it without using his Heavenly Flames. But at this moment, despite Xiao Yan's best efforts, the speed at which his Heavenly Flames entered the Thousand-Fan Tree was still pitifully slow.
This slow process lasted for a full three hours, during which Xiao Yan's expression changed from calm to solemn.
"Puff..."
At a certain moment, a faint muffled sound suddenly came from within the dark green tree trunk. Instantly, Xiao Yan's slightly pale face lit up with joy. With a thought, the Life Spirit Flame within the tree trunk quickly rose up.
"Hiss hiss hiss..."
A hissing sound came from inside the tree trunk, and Xiao Yan and Jin Yao's emotions suddenly became tense.
As the flames of Life Spirit Flame rose, wisps of emerald green flames surged from within the tree trunk, and in an instant, the entire Thousand-Fan Tree seemed to be ablaze.
Faced with this scene, Xiao Yan and Jin Yao had no time to pay attention. Their eyes were fixed on the Thousand-Fan Tree in front of them, their minds highly focused, and their Spiritual Strength enveloped the Thousand-Fan Tree, constantly probing its aura.
However, reality is always disappointing. Despite the two staring intently at the Thousand-Fan Tree for a long time, the entire tree remained standing upright like a sculpture, motionless. Even with the blessing of the Life Spirit Flame, the Thousand Thousand-Fan Tree Thousand-Fan Tree did not change in the slightest.
"In the end... we still failed..."
Much later, just as the two felt a sense of loss, and just as Xiao Yan was about to withdraw his Life Spirit Flame, a faint cracking sound suddenly came from a branch of the Thousand-Fan Tree.
Although the sound was extremely faint, Xiao Yan and his companion heard it clearly.
Immediately, the two looked up at the same time, their eyes following the sound, their gazes filled with surprise and delight.
However, the next moment, when the two of them saw clearly where the sound came from, their expressions froze again, and the excitement that had just risen in their hearts plummeted to the bottom once more.
The branches, once as hard as steel, were now cracked open with a one-inch length by the burning flames of Life Spirit Flame. As Xiao Yan and Jin Yao watched, more cracks gradually spread across the entire Thousand-Fan Tree. At first glance, the whole tree seemed to be covered by a giant net, and a sense of loss quickly welled up in Xiao Yan and Jin Yao's hearts...
Unexpectedly, the hope they had just found, after three hours of effort, only resulted in this dilapidated state...
Under the scorching heat of the Heavenly Flames, it seems that this Thousand-Fan Tree will soon completely disintegrate!
"Well..."
With a helpless sigh, Xiao Yan's thoughts shifted, and the Life Spirit Flame burning on the Thousand-Fan Tree dissipated. However, the crackling sound of shattering continued to echo throughout the entire Thousand-Fan Tree.
Xiao Yan and Jin Yao exchanged a glance. The alluring look in the latter's eyes quietly faded, replaced by genuine pity.
Clearly, she cared a great deal about the Thousand-Fan Tree, but now that she had fallen into this predicament, there was nothing she could do.
"Mr. Xiao Yan, don't worry, the Thousand-Fan Tree is destroyed, so what? It's just one tree anyway..."
However, before Jin Yao Jin Yao could finish speaking, her eyes widened suddenly as she looked at Thousand-Fan Tree, and a deep look of disbelief appeared in them.
Immediately afterwards, his expression turned into one of uncontrollable excitement, and at the same time, Xiao Yan's expression also changed once again.
The look of disappointment on his face vanished instantly, replaced by an overwhelming joy, as if he had survived a catastrophe. His previously pale complexion flushed crimson at the sight that appeared on the Thousand-Fan Tree.
At this moment, the emotions in the hearts of these two people were beyond measure.
Upon closer inspection, one could see that the trunk of the Thousand-Fan Tree, which was originally covered with cracks, was now revealing new, verdant bark, like a newly sprouted bud, as pieces of dark green bark were falling away.
